Press review

Monthélie rouge 2014 - Wine Enthusiast - October 2016 - 88/100

Produced
in this village in the hills behind the main slope of the Côte de Beaune, this
wine is smooth and rich. Fine, soft tannins easily integrate into the sweet
texture and red-plum fruit. The acidity is there, giving a wine that is both
fresh and generous. Drink from 2018.
